Urinary Biomarkers in Bladder Cancer: FDA-Approved Tests and Emerging Tools for Diagnosis and Surveillance.
Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bladder cancer is a prevalent malignancy with high morbidity and mortality, particularly when diagnosed at an advanced stage. Early detection is critical, as it significantly improves prognosis and the patient's outcomes. Bladder cancer also has a high recurrence rate, necessitating long-term surveillance. While cystoscopy remains the gold standard for diagnosis and monitoring, it is invasive and costly. Urine cytology, though widely used, has high specificity for detecting high-grade urothelial carcinoma but suffers from low sensitivity and limited effectiveness as a stand-alone diagnostic tool. Urinary biomarkers offer a promising, noninvasive alternative for early detection and disease surveillance. This review examines FDA-approved urinary biomarker tests, including NMP 22, UroVysion, and BTA, highlighting their clinical utility and limitations. Additionally, we explore emerging biomarkers such as DNA methylation assays, genomic alterations, and proteomic signatures as well as advanced technologies like next-generation sequencing and machine learning-based platforms. These innovations have the potential to enhance diagnostic accuracy, risk stratification, and recurrent monitoring, ultimately improving early detection and long-term disease management. By evaluating both established and emerging urinary biomarkers, this review aims to provide clinicians and researchers with insights into evolving tools for bladder cancer diagnosis and surveillance.
